    Hi All,
    This is something I've been working on for a while now but not able to narrow down an id on the set. I believe this is a chess set, made of bronze, pieces range from 1" to 2 1/2"H. These look similar to Akan gold weight figures that I found. Any information appreciated.

      Thanks for the love folks!
      I thought Ashanti too, but Akan was suggested - Ashanti is a sub-group of Akan.
